A second opinion written by AI from each hero's kit (shown separately from the main matrix, so it may not match it exactly).
🟢 Scarlet Witch beats easily
Tankpool Area damage ignores his personal self-healing and wears him down along with everyone else.
The Hood Same problem: area damage ignores his single-target shield and punishes the team for grouping.
Groot Area damage isn't stopped by the wall the way direct damage is.
🔴 Scarlet Witch struggles against
Hawkeye His range punishes her from afar before she can close in with her burst.
Black Widow Same problem: precision at range against a duelist who has to get close for her real damage.
Psylocke Her fast gap-closing cancels Scarlet Witch's control window before she can fully use it.
